Christian Talks About His WWE Return, When He Could Wrestle, Del Rio

Following his surprise return at Sunday’s Elimination Chamber PPV, Christian was interviewed by Joey Styles this week and had this to say:

His Surprise Appearance At Elimination Chamber: “I was on my way to physical therapy in Florida and accidentally got on the interstate heading west. For the life of me I couldn’t find anywhere to turn around and the next thing I knew, I was in Oakland where Elimination Chamber was. What a coincidence!”

How His Torn Pectoral Muscle Is Healing Following Surgery: “I’m not going to lie, it was the hardest thing I’ve had to overcome in my entire professional career. There were days I wondered if I’d ever be able to compete again. But the reaction from my peeps, not only in Oakland but the entire WWE Universe, reminded me why I worked so hard to get back. And who knows? If I hadn’t been injured by Del Rio maybe I would have won the Royal Rumble and it would be me challenging for the World Heavyweight Title at WrestleMania.”

When He Will Be Medially Cleared To Wrestle Again: “I don’t have a definite date yet, but I’m hopeful that it will be in the next few weeks. I’m not planning on missing WrestleMania.”

Parting Words For Alberto Del Rio, Who Put Him Out Of Action: “Payback’s a b**** … but you already know that, Alberto. (laughs)”
